Twyfords Nocturne | Damask Basin & Pedestal | Restored Vintage

Bring bold, period character to your home with this genuine Damask Nocturne Basin & Pedestal. Part of the prolific Nocturne range by Twyfords, this suite was a staple of 1980s and early 90s design. While the range was eventually discontinued, its robust build and elegant lines mean many original units are still in use today, making high-quality replacement parts like this set incredibly valuable for homeowners.

The Exclusive Damask Colour

Damask was a signature shade exclusive to Twyfords. Often confused with the more common Burgundy, Damask is slightly lighter in tone, offering a rich, plum-like warmth that provides a luxurious feel without being as dark as traditional wine-coloured ceramics. Finding a matching basin and pedestal in this specific glaze is a rare opportunity to ensure tonal consistency in your restoration.

Condition and Restoration

This set has been fully restored to ensure it meets modern standards for hygiene and aesthetics. It is in good overall condition, with the vitreous china glaze professionally cleaned to highlight its original deep lustre. By choosing a restored unit, you get the authentic 1980s look with the peace of mind that the item has been thoroughly inspected for structural integrity.
